Is picking up men/women an art form?

I had this discussion with a couple friends of mine, girls and guys, about whether "courting" (term used loosely) is an art form? Obviously some people are more successful than others at it, but is it art?

My thoughts on the matter are yes. I compared it to music. With enough practice and education, you can become very successful. If an inexperienced guitar player writes a song, it's still a song. If a some dude strikes out with a dumb pickup line, it's still a pickup line.

Some guys are more seasoned. Having practiced their charasmatic traits can yield great results. Things like being able to dance, knowing how to get women drunk without making them aware that you're doing it, cooking, smooth talk, etc. Those things make it an art form in my opinion.

Could be debated.

No it's not an art, it's a skill, like juggling or a golf swing. Yes it requires a tremendous amount of practice, a degree of innovation and some creativity, but no one is ever going to call it an art form.

...knowing how to get women drunk without making them aware that you're doing it...

creepy.

picking up men and women is pretty easy nowadays...

just drive to any Home Depot early in the morning, and look for the people standing around as if they are waiting for someone...

the airport could also be a good place

and the bus station downtown could definitely work

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season.

      Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively.

      Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
